All wireless chargers are inefficient and there isn’t a known way to make them efficient. There are some theoretical things you could do, like beam steering of the EM field so that more of the energy intersects with the receiving coils, but in practice that’s so insanely expensive as to be fantasy for something as large as a roadway. The efficiency will also never be as good as running the current through a wire.

Raaaaaaaaange. People want range. Why does every trad car manufacturer struggle with this concept?

Try building a competitive product next time.

this is just the smallest thing to complain about, but I hope some Ford engineer sees it:

what the hell is up with the low speed PWM on the LED drivers? who made that dumb decision? now every recording of a Lightning is going to be marred by strobing light effects when it clashes with the shutter.

literally everyone in the world is walking around with video camera these days. it would cost nothing to choose good LED driver.

nod. last years where particular bad tho.

I wonder if this in relation to the massive flooding parts of China got last year?
